Sometimes I Don't Understand Genius

I think that we can all agree that Marc Jacobs is a genius.  His quilted handbags are beautiful.  His clothes are always edgy, youthful and fun.  To top it off, Marc Jacobs has kept Louis Vuitton relevant and modern as its creative director, when LV could have easily slid into the trenches of boring  old lady bags like Ferragamo bags have. However, there are times when even I do not understand MJ's fashion risks.  For example, mouse shoes and one of the ugliest old lady bags I have ever seen in my entire life.  As edgy as I think that I am, I'm definitely not edgy enough to wear mouse shoes. And that bag, I cannot comprehend it at all.  It's one old lady bag on top of another.  It's not even like it's Marc Jacobs bags for Target, this bag is the real deal and it's over $2,000.00 to buy it.  So, this is where I'm not sure if Marc Jacobs is so genius that I don't understand him the way that I don't understand why Van Gogh chopped his ears off; or if these mouse shoes are exactly what they seem: really weird and ugly. Right now I will reserve judgment because these mouse shoes might be totally cute as part of a whole ensemble...an ensemble where the rest of your outfit is made of cheese.

Frugalista I Am Not

There is no way, no possible way that I will ever be that girl that does the "buy it for cheaper" column.  Well not as long as Gucci shoes and Louis Vuitton purses exist in this world.  I don't even understand how a person can have this column.  Buy it Cheaper? Where? At the "Gucci and Louis Vuitton Stolen Merchandise Store?" That place is an urban legend!!! I can see girls everywhere mouthing the words "snobby bitch" right now, but that is because you misunderstand. I am not saying that all amazing things must be Gucci.  I know that there's tons of really cool cheap stuff out there that does not also force you to go hungry for buying them.  However, cheap stuff NEVER looks like this.  I would like to see someone attempt to show me cheaper versions of these amazing Gucci Drew heels.  And good luck finding a cheap version of this Louis Vuitton Vernis Leather Amarante Alma bag.  That's right, the bag is so nice that you can't even say the full name.

Two! Two Rings in One!

I do not know when crazy brass knuckles transformed into cute little rings, but they have and I want one!  These double-fingered rings turn any outfit into instant cool.  For instance, when you shut off all that whining coming from Lauren Conrad, you'll notice that she is wearing an uber cute double-fingered ring.  Adorable. Adorable like tiny little finger-cuffs! Class and sass, we loves it. (The ring to the left is by Elizabeth and James.)

Winter is Furry Hat Season!

I have always wanted a furry hat in the winter.  It could be the primal woman inside me, but they just look so comfortable and warm.  I analogize my need for a furry hat to the need to have UGGs. The reason every girl owns a pair of those wretched boots is because we just want to have our feet warm! It's for those days when the cold is so bitter that you can't pretend your cute Burberry boots are going to save you from frostbite or from possibly losing that little toe that always gets smashed to the side. So of course I recognise that furry hats are ridiculous. But sometimes, I just want my head to be warm. Besides, the model in the picture looks cute with her furry hat. Now, I just need to figure out where to get a full leopard ensemble to match my furry hat.
